I hope they get it. I hope that ballroom is built. It will stand as a physical reminder for future generations.
There will always be historical records of course but there is something about a tangible, physical thing. I hope a portion of it is set aside as a museum to demonstrate to future Americans that democracy is fragile. It is not a guaranteed thing, even in the place where it was birthed. I think there needs to be a monument to Trump - but not the kind he would like. It should be the kind that perseveres the memory of the insanity of this time so that future generations will always be reminded that eternal vigilance must be kept lest the insanity come again.

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
